Summary:

Much obliged for JH calling but regrets he was out. The question [on steam] they have been discussing seems to be answered by a paper by a Prof. Karl Holtzmann he has just come across; comments on this. If JH is coming to S. J. A. Compton's (2nd Marquis of Northampton) soiree will he come and dine at St. James' Place?
